Can one serve God and one's nation in parliament?
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
No-one is forced to stand for Parliament; no-one is compelled to become a minister. If you take on those roles, which are great privileges, you also take on big responsibilities.
The only way you can serve God is by serving other people.
Now the only way you can serve God on earth is by serving others.
One and God make a majority.
Parliament of the country is the repository of the sovereign will of the people, and its successful functioning is a joint responsibility of both the government and the Opposition.
The kingdom of God is an order of government established by divine authority. It is the only legal government that can exist in any part of the universe.
It can have a secular purpose and have a relationship to God because God was presumed to be both over the state and the church, and separation of church and state was never meant to separate God from government.
The god can no more exist without his people than the nation without its god.
God has called us to be His representatives in our nation and in our world. Select candidates who represent your views and work for their election.
Therefore, if God existed, only in one way could he serve human liberty - by ceasing to exist.
